Definition of lawbreaker in English:
A person who breaks the law.
- They're being criminalized and treated as lawbreakers.
- The essential arguments are that nothing in the policy excludes these cases and that to exclude them puts lawbreakers in a better position than entrants who declare themselves.
- 'If the Government becomes a lawbreaker,' he wrote, 'it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy.'
Law malfeasant, infractor
- Example sentences
- So, the Republicans will change the law to either politicize the prosecutor's office or retroactively legitimize past lawbreaking, and then proclaim themselves clean.
- But the prevalence of cultural relativism must take some blame too: For some, a culture of lawbreaking is just as valid as a culture of obedience to the law.
- If we go back to the case of massive resistance to desegregation, we have another example of federal lawbreaking assisted by state officials.

Definition of bodkin in English:
- Thus the body of the witch might be subjected to penetration by bodkins or needles as the insensible spot was sought.
- Isaac Newton risked his vision by poking a bodkin beneath his eyeball to understand how we see.
- There is a nail knot/tying tool, clipper/nipper, a bodkin - which as we all know is a needle.
The origin is perhaps Celtic linked with Irish bod, Welsh bidog, and Scottish Gaelic biodag 'dagger'. This was the first sense recorded in English and is used by Shakespeare in Hamlet: 'When he himself might his quietus make With a bare bodkin'. Another early use was for a sharp instrument for piercing cloth; now, in needlework, a bodkin is, on the contrary, blunt with a large eye for threading tape and other thick threads through material.

The Ronald Lee Sterner Trust Fund
Ronald Lee Sterner was adopted through Covenant Children's Home by the Sterner family in the 1950's. Tragically Ronald died as a young child. In 1957 the Sterner family established the Ronald Lee Sterner Trust in his memory. The Board of Covenant Children's Home was named as the Administrator of the trust. The purpose of the trust to was to encourage and enable other vulnerable children to pursue a post-high school education through scholarship grants.
Today Covenant Children's Ministries continues to administer funds generated by the trust in accordance with the wishes of the Sterner family. Special consideration is given to "orphaned children" as defined by the trust, and to former residents and clients of Covenant Children's Home. Other factors considered are students from "broken homes," those attending schools of Christian emphasis, and students pursuing careers in Christian service or one of the helping professions. Over the years, as the trust fund has grown, Covenant Children's Ministries has helped hundreds of worthy students achieve their educational goals, and it continues to do so today.

What Is the Frost Line in Colorado?
Colorado, known for its stunning landscapes and diverse climate, is a state that experiences harsh winters. One crucial factor to consider when building any structure in Colorado is the frost line. The frost line, also referred to as the freezing depth or frost depth, is the depth at which the ground freezes during the coldest winter temperatures. Understanding the frost line is essential for constructing durable and stable foundations, avoiding costly repairs, and ensuring the safety of structures in this beautiful state.
How Does the Frost Line Affect Construction?
The frost line plays a significant role in construction as it determines how deep foundations and footings need to be to prevent damage from freezing and thawing cycles. If a foundation is not deep enough, the frozen ground can heave and cause structural damage. Knowing the frost line is crucial for builders and homeowners to prevent issues related to soil movement and shifting foundations.
What Is the Average Frost Line in Colorado?
The average frost line in Colorado varies across the state due to its diverse topography and climate. In most areas, the frost line ranges from 36 to 42 inches (91 to 107 cm) deep. However, in some mountainous regions, it can reach depths of up to 60 inches (152 cm). It is important to consult local building codes or professionals to determine the specific frost line depth for a particular location.
Why Does the Frost Line Vary in Different Areas of Colorado?
The frost line depth varies in different areas of Colorado due to several factors, including elevation, temperature variations, and soil conditions. Higher elevations experience colder temperatures, resulting in a deeper frost line. Additionally, certain soil types, such as clay, retain more moisture and freeze at shallower depths compared to sandy or well-drained soils.
How Does the Frost Line Impact Plumbing?
The frost line has a significant impact on plumbing systems in Colorado. Water lines that are not buried below the frost line are susceptible to freezing and bursting, leading to expensive repairs. To prevent this, water lines should be installed below the frost line to ensure they remain unaffected by freezing temperatures.
Do I Need to Consider the Frost Line for Above-Ground Structures?
While the frost line mainly affects foundations, it is still essential to consider it for above-ground structures. Structures such as decks, fences, and retaining walls should be built with a solid foundation below the frost line to prevent shifting or heaving during freeze-thaw cycles. Neglecting to account for the frost line can result in structural instability and potential damage.
How Can I Determine the Frost Line Depth for My Property?
To determine the frost line depth for a specific property in Colorado, it is best to consult local building codes, contact the county's building department, or seek advice from a professional engineer or architect. These professionals have the knowledge and expertise to analyze local conditions and provide accurate information regarding the frost line depth.
How Can I Protect My Structure from Frost Damage?
To protect structures from frost damage, it is crucial to ensure proper foundations and footings are built below the frost line. Additionally, insulating below-ground pipes and using frost-resistant materials can help prevent freezing and bursting. Regular maintenance and inspection of structures can also identify potential issues and allow for early intervention, reducing the risk of frost-related damage.
In conclusion, understanding the frost line in Colorado is essential for any construction project. By considering the frost line depth, builders and homeowners can construct durable and stable foundations, protect plumbing systems, and prevent costly repairs. It is always advisable to consult local building codes and professionals to ensure compliance and make informed decisions when constructing in Colorado's unique climate.

Definition - What does Smart Pig mean?
A smart pig is an inspection device that records information about the internal conditions of a pipeline. It is used to detect and measure corrosion and metal loss internally and externally on the pipe wall. Smart pigs can also detect curvatures in the pipeline.
When referring to using a smart pig for a pipeline some may refer to the process as "pigging the pipeline."
A smart pig is also known as a pipe pig, pipeline pig, pipeline inspection gauge, pipeline inline inspection tool, natural gas pipeline inspection tool or corrosion detection pig.
Corrosionpedia explains Smart Pig
Smart pigs are pipeline inspection tools that consist of large pieces of machinery combined with powerful technology that help with the maintenance of pipelines.
These inspection tools provide data on the condition of pipelines, which helps gauge the health and integrity of the pipes. These smart pigs ensure that transmission of the product does not stop due to pipeline integrity issues, which can be disastrous.
Smart pigs can be inserted into the pipeline at a location, such as a valve or pump station, that has a special configuration of pipes and valves where the tool can be loaded into a receiver. The receiver is closed and sealed, and the flow of the pipeline product can be directed to launch the tool into the main line of the pipeline. A similar setup is located downstream, where the tool is directed out of the main line into a receiver, removed from the pipeline, and the recorded data retrieved for analysis and reporting.
Smart pigs may measure several different things from inside the pipeline, including restrictions and deformations of the pipe, as well as metal loss. Odometer wheels are used to measure exactly where the pig is within the pipeline.
Smart pigs are used to detect problems such as:
- Stress corrosion cracking
- General corrosion
- Pitting corrosion
- Anomalous weld seams
- Longitudinal cracks
- Longitudinal grooves

Do you know how many calories in an Apple? although healthy and packed with vitamins and fiber and apple does contain calories. There is no such thing as a free food. So the calories in an apple can be higher
then you estimate aim for five a day. Fruit and vegetable servings of fruit juice or smoothies only count as one portion no matter how much you drink so very the fruits to eat daily. Try super foods like blueberries and red berries calories in fruits such as these is very low.
Apples are packed with nutrition and low in calories plus they provide your body with water. Apples contain at least eighty to ninety percent water and are high in vitamins and antioxidants. They are rich in the following nutrients: Beta carotene,vitamin A, vitamin C (mostly contained in the skin area of the Apple), iron, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, and two important antioxidants polyphenols and flavonoids.
You will be able to tell when an apple is at its perfect ripeness by the amount of send it gives off from the skin. Raw apple with skin per 100 grams 52 calories, extra small = 2 ½" diameter (101g) calories 53, raw apple without skin per 100 grams 48 calories small = 2 ¾" diameter (130g) 63 calories, large = 3 ¼" diameter (215g), 103 calories. One cup sliced (110g) 53 calories, boiled Apple per 100 grams 53 calories.
Good points of apples:
- No saturated fat
- No cholesterol
- Very low in sodium
- High in dietary fiber
- Very high vitamin b6
- Very high in vitamin C
I hope you enjoying reading this article about how many calories in an apple. Don't forget to share this article, thank you very much.


text: The Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition technique is widely used to identify and quantify the separate contributions of differences in measurable characteristics to group differences in an outcome of interest. The use of a linear probability model and the standard Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition, however, can provide misleading estimates when the dependent variable is binary, especially when group differences are very large for an influential explanatory variable. A simulation method of performing a nonlinear decomposition that uses estimates from a logit, probit or other nonlinear model was first developed in a Journal of Labor Economics article (Fairlie 1999). This nonlinear decomposition technique has been used in nearly a thousand subsequent studies published in a wide range of fields and disciplines. In this paper, I address concerns over path dependence in using the nonlinear decomposition technique. I also present a straightforward method of incorporating sample weights in the technique.

Is Sea Life Worth It?
Divers were willing to pay the most on average for healthy corals, at around $55 per dive, but they were also willing to pay an average of $35 for sharks and $30 for sea turtles.
As Suzanne Garrett, our dive program coordinator (ScubaSuz here on the blog) put it, "Divers are personally invested in the oceans and truly understand the importance of safeguarding marine wildlife and habitats."
For all you divers out there -- what would you pay to see, and how much?

What capital costs are associated with a VRF system compared to district energy?
VRF systems require upfront capital costs to install. Additionally, the average life of a compressor is about 10-15 years, and they range in costs from $5k to $15k in commercial buildings. Because district energy does not require cooling or heating equipment onsite, there are typically no upfront costs associated with connecting to a district energy system—unlike the high upfront capital costs required for boilers, chillers, and cooling towers. Many district energy providers are even willing to invest in connecting a building to the district system and will cover the cost of any potential street repairs and beautification. Plus, existing ductwork in a commercial building can often be retrofitted to accommodate district energy.

text: In this paper we propose two solution methods that can effectively handle the multifunction worker assignment problem in U-shaped production lines under the strategy of man-hour reduction applied by Lean Production Systems. This particular man-machine assignment problem aims at minimizing the number of workers within a certain cycle time. The two procedures proposed utilize the spacefilling curve technique as a means to visit all machines without violating the zone constraint minus; machines must be allocated in such a way that the walking routes of any two workers are not crossed. Computational experiments show that both algorithms perform well at determining the minimal workforce required to run a production line under certain parameters -walking times, machine operating times and cycle time. The model is deterministic, i.e., all parameters are assumed to be known with certainty.


A Model to Estimate L-Strut Strength With an Emphasis on Thickness
 loading Checking for direct PDF access through Ovid
Abstract
Importance
To perform and teach septorhinoplasty, one must have a principled understanding of the mechanics of the nasal septum. The thickness of the L-strut and how it changes septal strength have not been adequately quantified, yet calculating septal strength based on changes to thickness and size is vital in maintaining lasting nasal strength and integrity.
Objective
To establish standards for the nasal septal cartilage thickness, dorsal and caudal septum length, and Young's modulus. To provide a basis for quantitative, operative decision making, a mathematical model of L-strut strength is presented based on changes in thickness and width.
Design, Setting, and Participants
Nasal septal cartilages from 30 fresh cadavers were used to measure thickness at clinically relevant points and length of dorsal and caudal L-strut arms. The Young modulus was directly measured using a force gauge. Statistical analyses were performed to compare thicknesses in anatomically relevant areas. Using a cantilevered beam construct, the spring constant of the L-strut dorsal and caudal arms were estimated individually with width and thickness as variables.
Main Outcomes and Measures
Thickness, dorsal and caudal length, and the Young modulus of nasal septal cartilage. Spring constants of dorsal and caudal L-strut arms with different combinations of thickness and width.
Results
The mean (SD) age at death of the 30 cadavers was 79.2 (13.6) years (range 50-97 years). Of these, 17 (57%) were male, and 13 (43%) were female. The mean (SD) nasal septal cartilage thickness in the 30 cadavers was 1.45 (0.54) mm. Mean (SD) thickness of points along the 2-mm L-strut line was 1.49 (0.56) mm and was significantly thicker than points along the 5-mm L-strut line (mean [SD] thickness, 1.29 [0.52] mm) but significantly thinner than points along the 15-mm L-strut line (mean [SD] thickness, 1.68 [0.53]). Mean (SD) thicknesses of the posterior dorsal and caudal cartilage points were 1.52 (0.45) mm and 1.71 (0.69) mm and were significantly thicker than the anterior dorsal and caudal points (mean [SD] thickness, 1.28 [0.42] mm and 1.31 [0.44] mm, respectively). Mean (SD) dorsal and caudal L-strut arm lengths were 21.9 (3.7) mm and 20.9 (3.5) mm, respectively. The mean (SD) Young modulus was 2.03 (1.3) MPa. A model was generated demonstrating the thickness required to maintain a desired strength at a given dorsal or caudal arm width.
Conclusions and Relevance
Although thickness was not uniform throughout the nasal septum, there is a predictable pattern. Thickness of the L-strut contributes more to septal strength than does L-strut width. The model generated in this study can be used in planning, performing, or teaching the applied mechanics of septorhinoplasty.

Cat Eye Colors An Amazing Range Of Shades Cat eye
In the weeks that follow, kittens will develop their senses even more, namely, their sense of smell, hearing, and their sense of sight. Vet Info states that sometime between three weeks and two months of age a kitten's eyes may begin to change color from a foggy blue to a darker shade. Often, this change can be spotted with the appearance of brownish, amber, yellow, or greenish flecks of color.
When will kittens eyes change color. Kittens' eyes: What to know about the first month. The first step to answering, "When do kittens' eyes change color?" is to know that their eyes aren't even open at birth. Upon exiting the womb and entering the whelping box, a newborn kitten's eyes are sealed shut and functionally useless. Like their coatless bodies and closed ears. A kitten's eyes start to change colour if they are going to, when they are anything from 3 to 6 months old. The most important thing is for them to process light so their vision is good before the colour of their eyes finally change to the colour they will be for the rest of their lives. So, when do kittens' eyes change color? By week 6 or 7, a kitten's eye color begins to change. The iris, the colored part of the eye, contains melanocytes. Once the eye is sufficiently mature, these melanocytes begin producing melanin, pigment that gives the eye its mature adult coloration.
At this age, the adult eye color will begin to emerge. Kittens' eyes will change from baby blue to the eye color they will keep permanently. Kittens with grey, green, or yellow eyes are likely 7 weeks or older. When does kittens' eye color change? Kittens undergo a lot of changes in just a short period of time. At around 6 to 7 weeks of age, a kittens eyes may begin to gradually change color. What color their eyes will end up being is a result of the amount of pigment within the tapetum lucidum. Most of the time, a kitten's eyes will be permanently changed into their adult color by the time they reach 12 to 16 weeks. There is physics behind the answer to the question, which may displease some readers and I'll understand why! By six or seven weeks of age a kitten's eyes begin to change colour from blue to
Blue eyes have virtually no melanin present, as young kittens don't produce a lot of melanin. But as they grow and age, the kitten's body produces more melanin, triggering the eye color change, which occurs around 4 weeks of age and progresses until about 10 weeks of age. Nope! At about 8 weeks, your kittens eye have come full circle. If you are wondering when do kittens' eyes change color or if they will change color again, no they don't. at this point, they are fully mature and fully functional. Even though your kittens eyes have now matured, that doesn't mean they are safe from the kittens own clumsiness. So, when do kittens' eyes change color? By week 6 or 7, a kitten's eye color begins to change. The iris, the colored part of the eye, contains melanocytes.
Blue eyes are associated with all kittens under 6-8 weeks of age. If blue is your favorite color and cats with this magnificent eye color are a must have, then you should go for felines who are known to maintain the color to old age, such as Snowshoe, Ragdoll, Balinese, Javanese, Himalayan, Tonkinese, Persian, and Siamese.Plus, the Ojos Azules is a unique cat breed that can present blue-eyed. Beautiful Blue Eyes. Most kittens, when their eyes open at about 2 weeks old, have light blue eyes, and Johnson said that over the next month or two the eye color changes to the color it will be throughout her adult life. Most adult cats' eyes are somewhere on the color continuum from green to yellow to orange to copper. Look into your cat's eyes. What color are they? The vast majority of adult cat eye colors exist on a spectrum ranging from green, gold and yellow on one side to orange, copper, and brown on the other, with a host of variations and shades between. But what about cats with blue eyes? All kittens are
As beautiful as blue is, most likely, your kitten's eyes will change color. All kittens are born with blue eyes (however, you won't be able to see their baby blues for a few days as they are born with their eyes closed!). For the first seven to 13 days, they depend on smell and, of course, mom in order to survive. Once your kitten's eyes have changed color from the bluish-gray that she was born with, her eyes should not change color after that. If you do notice a sudden change, like if they seem unusually brown or dark yellow, that may signal a serious underlying condition caused by anything from trauma to the eye to feline leukemia. However, feline eye color changes may also indicate serious health concerns that warrant medical attention. Consequently, it is important to understand when and why a cat's eye color may change. Kitten Eye Color. Most kittens are born with blue eyes. As a kitten's sense of sight develops over the next several weeks, his eyes begin to take.
All British Shorthair kittens are born with blue eyes. Gradually, as they mature, the eyes turn to their actual colour. This transition starts when they are around 6-8 weeks old and continues until they are around 2 years old, when they finally reach their full colour. Cat eyes can come in a variety of colors. Kittens are born blind. The eye is blueish as it first starts to develop, gradually becoming the final adult color at three months. The eyes may be of two different colors, sometimes in the same eye! If your adult cat's eyes suddenly change color or appearance medical intervention will be necessary. When kittens begin opening their eyes, the eyes are bright blue in color, regardless of what color their eyes turn later as they grow up. If you have an older kitten and you notice her eyes beginning to change color, she is likely around 6-7 weeks old. At this time, the irises will begin to transition to their permanent, mature color.

- Account for Public Provident Funds
- Account for Senior Citizens Savings Plans.
Aapka Bank, Aapke Dwar is the catchphrase used by the Department of Post Bank. This manages the PAN India facility and provides a variety of services.
- Government-sponsored scholarships
- Government incentives and social welfare advantages.
- Postal savings programs
- Both loans and investments.
To enable greater services to be made available to registered members, the central government has heavily invested in DOPBNK. The legitimate person listed under the Department of India is the recipient of the DOPBNK SMS. The department has a number of programs that are helpful to users.
Is The Dopbnk SMS Legal Or Fake?
The SMS is allowed as long as we acknowledge that it was provided by the Department of Post Office (also known as the India Post Payments Bank, or IPPB), a government agency.
The DOPBNK is a government organization that offers the general people a wide range of helpful initiatives and services.
We will get a confirmation message from the bank after we make a transaction at any bank, indicating that it was successful. Similarly to this, anytime a transaction occurs in our Post Office Savings account or India Post Payments, the Post Office texts our registered phone number.
In summary, you will receive the DOPBNK SMS once you have created an IPPB (Department of Post Office account), and you may trust them because they are real.
It's possible that you or a member of your family registered your phone number at a Post Office location if you don't have a Post Office account but are still getting texts from DOPBNK.
You can choose to ignore messages from The Post Office or visit your neighborhood branch and ask questions if you haven't followed any of the aforementioned guidelines but are still receiving them.

Q 1: What's The Full Form Of Dopbnk?
A 1: DOPBNK's full name is the Department of Post Office. The Indian Postal Service is referenced here. The Post Office Department Bank may send you an SMS if you have a Post Office account. The communication will be transmitted by the Department of Postal Banking and Networks (DOPBNK).
Q 2: What Is The Dopbnk Message?
A 2: Any bank with which we do business will email or SMS us to let us know the transaction has been successfully completed. Similarly to that, the Post Office will text the phone number we gave them if there is action in either our Post Office Savings account or our India Post Payments account.
After opening an account with the Department of Post Office, you will be eligible to receive the DOPBNK SMS (IPPB). You can have full confidence in the SMS sender, DOPBNK, as they have supplied accurate information.
Q 3: How Do I Find Out How Many DoPs I Have?

Reliable Industries is considering the construction of a power plant investment in India. Reliable analysts calculate that the cost of building the plant is $600 million, and the IRR of the plant is 13%. The analysts also estimate that given the experience of building the first plant, a second plant can be built for $550 million, and additional plants can be built for $500 million each.
1. How would you go about evaluating whether to build or not to build this power plant in India?
2. Are you evaluating a project or a strategy?
3. How does the risk associated with the power plant strategy compare with the risk associated with the individual power plants?

You can mount your FTP drive on your seedbox so you can easily access your files and folder by a mounted network drive on your PC from the seedbox, You can delete files, copy files from the seedbox like it was a drive on your seedbox.
One more benefit is you can drag and drop a file from seedbox onto a vlc player and it would start playing the video or audio files from seedbox directly.
Step 1: Copy the "Link to Use ftp from browser" sent in your initial mail
Step 2: Go to your desktop and right click on my computers, you dont have my computer on your desktop wtach this 2 mins video which will help you set up my computer in your desktop
Step 3: Right-click on my computer(on your desktop) and select map network drive
Step 4: Choose any unused drive on your device and On the next screen click on the blue text as shown on the screenshot below
Step 5: Select choose a custom network location. Double-click on it.
Step 6: On the tab that opens up paste the ftp url you copied from your seedbox is ready mail and then click next.
Step 7: Name any friendly name for the seedbox drive
Step 8: Click on next and then click finish
Step 9: Browsing to the ftp network drive in your device is easy just follow the screenshot
You and browse the files and folders now within your seedbox but one disadvantage is that you cannot play/open the files directly from your seedbox, but you can copy files and folders in your computer and use it accordingly.
If you have any questions put it in the comments we will try to update the tutorial accordingly.

I can tell you the answer for the second question: How to show UTM-coordinates in the lower right corner.
In leaflet the internal coordinate system is always longitude/latitude as far as I know, and you have to transform every time you need to work with your data.
First make sure you have installed proj4.js and proj4leaflet.js. To show your coordinates you can use the plugin:.
Then define your coordinate system and use when you define your map object:
var crs = new L.Proj.CRS.TMS('EPSG:25832',
 '+proj=utm +zone=32 +ellps=GRS80 +units=m +no_defs',
 [120000, _PHONE_, _PHONE_, _PHONE_],
 {resolutions: [1638.4, 819.2, 0.1]
var map = new L.Map('map', {
 crs: crs,
 continuousWorld: true,
 worldCopyJump: false
The function _onMouseMove() should be modified to something like this:
_onMouseMove: function (e) {
 var my_crs =; // get the coordinate system
 var my_proj = my_crs.projection; // get the projection, which makes the transform
 var my_point = my_proj.project(e.latlng); // Here we transform back to UTM
 var lng = my_point.x;
 var lat = my_point.y;
 var value = this.options.lngFirst? lng + this.options.separator + lat : lat + this.options.separator + lng;
 var prefixAndValue = this.options.prefix +'' + value;
 this._container.innerHTML = prefixAndValue;
You will then get your mouse position in UTM. For more information see the documentation for proj4leaflet and leaflet.mouseposition.

School Employees May Give Insulin Shots to Children With Type 1 Diabetes, California Courts Rules
The California Supreme Court ruled that public school employees may administer insulin shots to diabetic students.
The court found that California law permits trained but unlicensed school employees to administer the shots when a school nurse is unavailable, which is increasingly common in public schools across the state.
The decision settles a legal battle between the parents of diabetic students, backed by the ADA, and the California Nurses Association, which maintains only licensed nurses should be allowed to handle the task in public schools.
The decision reversed an appeals court ruling that found state law does not permit unlicensed school personnel, such as teachers or administrators, to give insulin shots to diabetic public school students.

Convert Paradox to MariaDB online
Add file
Input file
Please upload the files of your Paradox database directory. The file extensions are: .DB (for table), .PX (for primary index), .MB (for memos), .VAL (for validation), .TV (for formatting) and others.
Max file size for web uploads: 50 GB
Output file
The API will return a ZIP archive that contains a .SQL file. This .SQL is a MariaDB dump file and can be restored into your MariaDB installation.
Conversion methods
Using our Java tool
Download the RebaseData client Java tool . To convert your database using RebaseData, run the following command:
 java -jar client-0.0.5.jar convert --output-format=mariadb database-files.. output-dir/

Using CURL
Let's imagine we want to convert the EMPLOYEE table of the paradoxReader's sample files. We would have to upload all files starting with "EMPLOYEE", namely EMPLOYEE.DB, EMPLOYEE.F10, EMPLOYEE.PX and EMPLOYEE.VAL. The curl command would look like this:
curl -F 'files[]=@EMPLOYEE.DB' -F 'files[]=@EMPLOYEE.F10' -F 'files[]=@EMPLOYEE.PX' -F 'files[]=@EMPLOYEE.VAL' '_URL_ -o output.zip
The file output.zip will contain a MariaDB file, one for each table in the set of input files. If something went wrong, output.zip contains the error message.
Options
How long does it take?
The conversion process takes between 15 seconds and multiple minutes. It depends on the size of the database.
You can also use your favourite tool

any case).
You can control how an application reacts to a parameter modification by subscribing RoleEnvironment.Changing event, if you want to restart the whole role when a parameter change you can simply set Cancel=true inside Changing event:
RoleEnvironment.Changing += (s, e) =>
e.Cancel = true;
in this case, when application's.cscfg file content change, the role is shut down then restarted so that new parameters can be properly reloaded. If you don't want to restart the role but handle modifications yourself you can handle Changes parameter passed to RoleEnvironment.Changing event.
How can you test this logic when your app runs inside Azure local compute emulator? here are basic step:
 - Run you app locally and read what is current development id by opening compute emulator UI and reading what between parenthesis (2103 in following example) following deploymentXX label:
 - Run Windows Azure Command Prompt and navigate to the folder that contains your configuration file ServiceConfiguration.cscfg and run this command:
 csrun /update:[id];ServiceConfiguration.cscfg
And you'll see your role reacting to configuration change appropriately.

Copying and moving styles using Expression Blend for HTML
Here's a couple of Blend tricks I'd like to share:
Let's say you have this HTML fragment:
 Content goes here
by looking at Blend's css properties pane you can see that, it has some css rules automatically applied:
you can copy the applied rule and paste it into another stylesheet by right clicking the highlighted row into selecting copy:
Now go to the Styles pane and click the "+" button shown in the picture below to add a new stylesheet:
then right click new file and select paste from context menu to paste the selector.
If you already have the same selector inside target file the properties will be merged (you'll see Paste properties instead of Paste menu) of course you can also right click the selector inside source file and copy/paste from there but in this case you will copy all selectors not just applied one.
Let's now suppose you change h1's background color:
this results in this inline style:
 Content goes here
how do I move the inline style to h1's selector inside my test.css? select Inline Style on Blend's pane and select Copy from context menu:
then select target stylesheet, target rule (if any), right click and then Paste properties from context menu:
to have properties added to selected file or rule.

Fragment loading and Navigation in HTML5 Metro applications
Navigation is one of the core concepts of any Metro application, in this post I'll show how can you implement it in a HTML based Metro application.
The easiest way is to use the same common approach used by millions of HTML pages: using an hyperlink.
Assuming you are in default.html page and wish to navigate to page2.html all you need to do is add something like:
 1:
 2:
 3:
 4:
 5: DemoNavigation
 7:
 8:
 9:
 12:
 13:
 14:
 15:
 16:
 17: Click here to navigate to Page 2
 18:
 19:
When you run the app and click the hyperlink you move straight to page2.html.
This is approach is quite common, works fine (of course) but has a main drawback: you loose state when you move from default.html to page2.html, so if you need to maintain state, something that's quite common in client application Smile, you're on your own.
The problem is the same in web application that's why technologies like ajax or single page applications are gaining more and more momentum.
Let's now briefly see how you can embed an HTML fragment into default.html using WinJS's HtmlControl, here's the html you need to add to default.html page:
 1:
 2:
 3: This is a html fragment
 4:
 1:
 2: This is main page
 3:
 5:
Launching the app you'll see exactly what expected but with some limitations:
the fragment can't reference any css nor javascript file, and you are not informed when the fragment is loaded, luckily there's a way to get some javascript code executed when fragment is loaded into the DOM: WinJS.Pages.define.
Let's assume we wish to dynamically change the text of the fragment after it has been loaded so let's add a new pagedefine.js file (just for better understanding and separation) to our solution:
 1: ///
 3: (function () {
 4: 'use strict';
 6: WinJS.UI.Pages.define("../fragments/pageFragment.html",
 7: {
 8: ready:function(element,options)
 9: {
 10: var text = document.getElementById("txt");
 11: text.innerText = new Date().toLocaleString();
 12: }
 13: });
 16: }());
 1:
 5:
The define method available on Pages object accept the uri that uniquely identifies the page that is going to be loaded and an object exposing a set of properties, among these, ready is the function that will be called when page has been loaded into DOM, then the code just changes element content with current date:
we're now in a state where we can load a HTML fragment and run some code after it has been loades, before going further I need to point out that HmlControl can only load local html, if you need to load external content iFrame is your friend.
Problem now is: what if I need to load the fragment programmatically? (e.g. on a button click), let's remove HtmlControl from default.html and let's inject the fragment with a little help from WinJS:
 1:
 2:
 3:
 4:
 5: DemoNavigation
 7:
 13:
 14:
 15:
 16:
 17:
 19: Load fragment
 20:
 21:
 22:
 1: //default.js
 2: (function () {
 3: "use strict";
 4: var app = WinJS.Application;
 5: app.onactivated = function (eventObject) {
 6: if (eventObject.detail.kind === Windows.ApplicationModel.Activation.ActivationKind.launch) {
 7: if (eventObject.detail.previousExecutionState!== Windows.ApplicationModel.Activation.ApplicationExecutionState.terminated) {
 8: // TODO: This application has been newly launched. Initialize
 9: // your application here.
 10: } else {
 11: // TODO: This application has been reactivated from suspension.
 12: // Restore application state here.
 13: }
 14: WinJS.UI.processAll().then(function (e) {
 15: "btnLoad").listen("click", function (e) {
 16: //Load fragment
 17: var"contentHost")[0];
 18: WinJS.UI.Pages.render("../fragments/pageFragment.html", host, { data: 'data2share' });

Hey guys, I'm trying to write custom built in solidworks tutorials, and one function the current ones use is a function called FlashIt, where you click a button in the tutorial screen and it flashes up on the solidworks screen to show you where it is. However, this function needs the variable input "ButtonID", which seems to be just a random typed in number from what I can see.
Is there some list somewhere of what button has what button ID? Or is there some way to find out?

A mysterious sinkhole spewing fire and incredible heat has appeared in a Chinese hillside.
Geologists and media have flocked to the desolate mountain on the outskirts of Urumqi, in Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region in north-western China, since it appeared a few weeks ago.
The heat blasting from the 'ring of fire' has been measured at 792C (1457F) from two metres away, reports People's Daily Online, and is so intense that experts can't get close enough to determine how deep the hole is.
Locals told Chinese media that they had noticed the ground in the area had been warm underfoot for some time.
The hill is not in a volcanic area, and experts from Xinjiang Meitian Geological Bureau think the hole is caused by the layer of spontaneously combusted coal underneath the ground, which leads the surface layer to collapse.
'The phenomenon has existed in the area for a few decades,' Huang Wei, an engineer from the bureau told China Central TV Station.
He added that smoke often comes from under the ground on this hill in the spring and autumn.

is zinc hydroxide soluble in water.
The study was published in the journal Nature Communications.
Why is zinc hydroxide insoluble in water?
Zinc hydrate is insolubilized in the presence of water. This is why it is so important to use a water-soluble zinc supplement. zinc oxide, and zinc sulfate are all insoluable in aqueous solutions. Zinc oxide is soluble in most water, but it can be insolvented in solution. The solution is then filtered to remove the insolated zinc. If the zinc is not removed, it will remain in solutions and can cause problems.
How do I know if my zinc supplements are safe?
Is zinc hydroxide considered soluble or not soluble?
Zinc hydoxide is considered insoluble in water. It is soluble in the presence of water, but not in solution. and the following are the most common forms of zinc oxide:
– Zinc oxide is a crystalline powder that is insolubles in liquid. The crystallization process is the same as that for the crystallized form of calcium carbonate. ZnO is also soluble when dissolved in a solution of sodium hydrosulfate, sodium bicarbonate or sodium carbonates. In the case of ZN, the solution is usually aqueous. When dissolved, ZNO is dissolved into the water and is absorbed by the cell. This absorption process can be reversed by adding a small amount of a salt such as sodium chloride.
The following is an example of the absorption of zn oxide by a cell:
where the z-component is 1 and C is 0.5. If the C-position of C and Z is not present, then the Z-hydroxyl group is present. Thus, when the zinc is added to the cells, it is converted to Z. However, if the hydration of this solution occurs, this conversion is reversed. Therefore, in this example, zinc is still soluble.
Is zinc soluble in water?
Zinc is a mineral that is soluble and can be absorbed through the skin. It is also soluble when it is dissolved in a solution. and the answer is yes. Zinc can also be found in foods, such as nuts, seeds, beans, fish, poultry, eggs, dairy products, fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds. The amount of zinc in your diet is dependent on the type of food you eat. For example, if you are eating a lot of nuts or seeds and you have a high intake of calcium, you may be deficient in zinc. If you're eating less than a serving of fruits and vegetables a day, your zinc levels may not be as high as they should be.
Is Fe OH 2 soluble or insoluble?
The answer is that FeO 2 is soluble in water, but Fe 2 O 3 is insolubles in air. and Fe is solublies in liquid. The answer to this question is:
"The Fe O 2 and the Fe2O 3 are soluble and insoluable in the presence of water. However, the soluble Fe and O are insolvable in aqueous solutions. Therefore, they are not soluble."
In the case of Fe, it is important to understand that the amount of the soluble Fe in solution is dependent on the concentration of oxygen in it. In the absence of air, Fe can be soluble, while in oxygenated solutions, its solvability is reduced. This is why the solution of a solution containing Fe with oxygen is called a "solution of dissolved Fe".
Fe is also soluble when it has been dissolved in an oxygen solution. For example, in this case, a mixture of 2.5% FeOH and 1.25% O2 in which the O is dissolved is a Fe solution, whereas a pure Fe-O solution would be a NaOH solution (see the section on NaO).
When the oxygenation of an air-dissolved solution occurs, however, there is no reduction in Fe's solvency. Thus, when the air is removed, oxygen will be present in solutions containing the dissolved solution and will dissolve the insolvent Fe. When the water is added to the mixture, this will also dissolve Fe (and thus the Na and Na2 O). The solution will then be Fe(OH) 2, Fe3O4, or Fe4O3.
This is because the addition of O to a dissolved mixture will reduce the number of atoms of each of these atoms. As a result, as the atoms are removed from the mix, their Fe atoms will become more soluble. If the total number is less than the sum of their atoms, then the remaining atoms remain insolute. (This process is known as "reduction of solute solvation".)
If the ratio of total Fe to total O in any solution increases, or if the proportion of Na to Na3 increases (as in Na 2 SO 4 ), then there will always be more Fe than O. So, if you add more oxygen to an O-solved mixture than there are oxygen atoms in that mixture (which is what happens when

The British Postal Museum in London houses a collection of objects, archives and works of art which trace back over 400 years of postal heritage. This historical collection is designated as being of outstanding national importance by the Arts Council and is on UNESCO's Memory of the World Register. The museum's archives are protected by a pressurised watermist fire protection system, designed, installed and maintained by Fireworks.
Why use pressurised watermist for archives?
Fireworks' watermist solutions are ideal for archives, as they offer the fastest, safest protection against fire and smoke. Automatic systems incorporate sensors that detect heat and/or smoke, long before fire is noticeable by the human eye. Pressurised water is then emitted exactly at the point of fire, to provide a highly effective, localised solution. The spread of harmful smoke is dramatically reduced and unlike traditional sprinkler systems, watermist only uses very small amounts of water.
The watermist fire protection system
The watermist solution designed for the British Postal Museum comprises a compact, powerful pump unit and a series of watermist nozzles. In the event of a fire been detected, the pump drives pressurised water through a system of fine diameter stainless steel pipes to the affected nozzle. Water is released through the nozzle, in the form of mist. These atomised water droplets are drawn directly to the point of fire, lowering the temperature and suppressing the fire in seconds.
A unique property of watermist is its ability to reduce the spread of smoke – the biggest cause of casualties and damage to assets during fire. Because of the minute size of water droplets, watermist is airborne and is able to bond with smoke particles, which then fall harmlessly to the floor.
Contact 0800 _PHONE_ for advice on fire protection for your library, museum or archive.

District Judges undertake most of the civil work of the courts, and fall into two catagories: those that sit in the County Courts (and were previously known as County Court Registrars), and those that sit in the Magistrates' Courts (and were previously known as Stipendiary Magistrates). The senior District Judge is also known as the Chief Magistrate.
How to Address a District Judge
The recommended judicial and social styles of address are as follows:
|Beginning of letter||Dear Judge or Dear Sir/Madam
|End of letter||Yours faithfully|
||District Judge Phllips
|Envelope (if a knight)||District Judge Sir John Phillips (formal)|
|Envelope (if a Dame)||District Judge Dame Elizabeth Phllips (formal)|
|Envelope (social)||District Judge Phllips|
|Verbal address (on the Bench)||Sir/Madam|
|Verbal address (social)||Judge Phllips or according to title
On retirement, District Judges are not referred to by any
judicial title and revert to Mr, Mrs, Mrs or Ms.

We're on the subject of viscosity maintenance again, and for good reason too. The matter is one that needs to be addressed year round, in both hot and cold weather. However, this time we're talking about maintaining the proper viscosity of your liquids under all perceivable circumstances, whether in room temperature, on cold or hot days.
Viscosity Maintenance Has Two Sides
In previous articles, we've discussed viscosity maintenance as it applies to maintaining low viscosity levels in your liquids through the use of Powerblanket® heating products. Of course, the reason we've talk so much about this is because it's pertinent to so many scenarios. However, maintaining low viscosity levels is only half the story when it comes to the entire viscosity conundrum. Some operations and product maintenance require the other side of the spectrum. In other words, Powerblanket can help with maintaining high viscosity levels as well.
If you store or use liquids that need to be very low in viscosity, then Powerblanket heating solutions can help you keep your liquids at temperatures high enough to keep the viscosity of the liquid very low. But, if the opposite challenge is your concern, Powerblanket can help there too. Our new Powerblanket ICE cooling products can keep your liquids cool enough to maintain high viscosity levels, even in really hot weather.
If the liquids you're storing are at risk of losing their viscous qualities when the temperatures rise, then Powerblanket ICE is going to be an invaluable ally for your operations. Powerblanket ICE comes in three performance levels and will help you keep your liquids cool and viscous, even in really hot weather.
- Keep your liquids cool during hot weather, maintaining viscous qualities and eliminating spoiled product
- Eliminate downtime associated with lost viscosity and the need for expensive cooling interventions
- Increase output and profit by increasing operational efficiency
Powerblanket ICE Features:
- Powerblanket ICE uses Powerblanket patented heat-spreading technology in reverse to draw heat away from the container and cool the contents inside.
- Powerblanket ICE covers and insulates your container with the same robust system used in the Powerblanket heating products.
- All three performance levels of Powerblanket ICE, the ice pack, ice box, and chiller-driven systems are portable (120VAC required).
- Powerblanket ICE allows you to control the temperature of bulk materials with ease:
- Increase yields (Bulk materials that sit at high temperatures will reduce yield for most viscous liquids. With Powerblanket ICE, you can bring the temperature down, and keep it there.)
- Maintain the viscous quality of your liquids
- Decrease operational inefficiencies
- Blankets can be left installed and running while bulk material containers are in use.

killSessions
Definition
killSessions
New in version 3.6.
The killSessions command kills the specified sessions. If access control is enabled, the command only kills the sessions owned by the user.
Note
Killing a session also kills any in-progress operations in the session and closes any open cursors associated with these operations.
Syntax
The command has the following syntax:
db.runCommand( { killSessions: [ { id : <UUID> }, ... ] } )
The command takes an array of documents that specify the UUID portion of the session id. Specify an empty array [ ] to kill all sessions, or if access control is enabled, all sessions owned by the user.
To view existing sessions, see $listSessions operation or $listLocalSessions.
Behavior
Session Identification
MongoDB concatenates each of the specified UUIDs with the hash of the authenticated user credentials to identify the user's sessions to kill. If the user has no session that match, the killSessions has no effect.
Example
The following operation kills the specified session for the user:
db.runCommand( { killSessions: [ { id: UUID("f9b3d8d9-9496-4fff-868f-04a6196fc58a") } ] } )

Map of Alberta Townships in Canada
You can easily create a map of Alberta Townships in Canada using Mapline. The township system was first introduced in Canada in the late 1700s. Township is the basic land survey division of land. It refers to the district or area associated with a town. Using Mapline, you can easily create a map of Alberta townships in Canada. In Alberta province, townships are not used in administrative units. Rather, they are used for the purpose of land division by Dominion Land Survey. They are recognizable by their township number and range number.
Steps to Create a Canada Township Map
- Create a Mapline account and login.
- Click the orange "Add New Items" button.
- Select "New Map" on the drop down arrow.
- Give your map a name and click "OK."
- Click the "Add" button from the left sidebar.
- Select the "Territories" option.
- Click "From Mapline's Repository."
- From the "Territories" select "Canada Townships – Alberta."
- Select how you want your boundaries to be colored in "Fill Color" (Random Colors, Uniform Color, Dynamic heat map colors, or Custom colors from spreadsheet).
- Click "OK."

Moving and Resizing Tiles
When adding an item to a Dashboard, Customer Insights adds the new item to the "end" of the Dashboard, using a size based on both the type of item being added and the amount of space available on the Dashboard. For example, suppose you have a Dashboard that looks like this:
If you add a new Look to that Dashboard, the Dashboard will then look similar to this:
That may or may not be where you wanted the new tile to go, and that may or may not be the size you wanted for the tile. Fortunately, that doesn't matter: Customer Insights makes it easy to move and (or) to resize elements on your Dashboards.
If you click an element on your Dashboard, you'll see several items appear on that element, including a Move handle (the three bars in the upper left corner) and a resizing handle (the solid triangle in the bottom right corner):
If you want to move an element to a new location on the Dashboard, click the Move handle, hold the mouse button down, and then drag the tile to its new location. As soon as you have the tile positioned correctly, release the mouse button, and the Dashboard will rearrange the other elements as needed:
To resize an element, click the resizing handle, hold the mouse button down, and drag the mouse until the tile is the desired size. When you release the mouse button, the tile will change size and the other elements on the Dashboard will automatically be moved to make as much room as is needed:


text: The aeroengine turbine cavity with pre-swirl structure makes the turbine component obtain better cooling effect, but the complex design of inlet and outlet makes it difficult to determine the heat transfer reference temperature of turbine disk. For the pre-swirl structure with two air intakes, the driving temperature difference of heat transfer between disk and cooling air cannot be determined either in theory or in test, which is usually called three-temperature problem. In this paper, the three-temperature problem of a rotating cavity with two cross inlets are studied by means of experiment and numerical simulation. By substituting the adiabatic wall temperature for the inlet temperature and summarizing its variation law, the problem of selecting the reference temperature of the multi-inlet cavity can be solved. The results show that the distribution of the adiabatic wall temperature is divided into the high jet area and the low inflow area, which are mainly affected by the turbulence parameters λT, the rotating Reynolds number Reω, the high inlet temperature Tf,H* and the low radius inlet temperature Tf,L* of the inflow, while the partition position rd can be considered only related to the turbulence parameters λT and the rotating Reynolds number Reω of the inflow. In this paper, based on the analysis of the numerical simulation results, the calculation formulas of the partition position rd and the adiabatic wall temperature distribution are obtained. The results show that the method of experiment combined with adiabatic wall temperature zone simulation can effectively solve the three-temperature problem of rotating cavity.

Re: Hurst Descendants Part II
In Response To: Hurst Descendants Part II ()
Hi Dawn, thank you so much for the information.
Also there were Burkes and Herringtons, who married Hursts, and I noticed these surnames in the information you sent me.
We have, Allen Burke, born 1844 in Burke County. He married, Bethia Herrington Burke on 1-9-1881. According to the Burke County 1900 census, they had 6 children.
We also have an Joseph/Joe Hurst born 1877, who married Emma Herrington Burke, born 1882.
There is also a Aaron Hurst born 1840?, wife's name Mary, born 1846? they are listed on the 1890 census of Burke County, as having six children.
I also have a copy of some papers showing one Lucy Herrington, who had a son Red Herrington. Documents were witnessed by one L. Lovett and A.J. Lovett. There is also mention of one Charles Hurst or Hursh and he is listed as the Sheriff of the County of Burke. Document is dated April 1896.There was also one Lucy Herrington, who had a daughter Emma, who marred a Hurst. It seems our Hursts and Herringtons lived in the same location as the family's of Jennie Cooper, B. F. Bargeron, J. L. Herrington, Alfred Herrington, W.L. Lovett and J. I. Herrington.
If this is the origin of how my husbands family acquired the surname Hurst, then maybe I can find out their slave origins. I would have to find out if slaves were bought to Burke County by Ship, and where the ships originated from. Probably when the first slaves were bought to
Anyway, thanks again, your information has helped tremendously.

Nano-sized titania (anatase) and sodium and potassium titanate nanotubes were studied via in situ Raman spectroscopy at hydrostatic pressures up to 6 GPa. Analysis by scanning electron microscopy shows a uniform dispersion of sodium and potassium cations in the nanotubes. The effect of the pressure was observed by significant shifts in the Raman band structure of nano-sized anatase crystals and nanotube titanate. In nano-particulate anatase, the phonon frequencies (143, 395, 517, and 639 cm−1) increase linearly with pressure. In contrast, the upward frequency shifts in the sodium titanate nanotubes (NaTNT) and potassium-modified nanotubes (NaTNT+K) occur in a stepwise fashion. These stepwise changes occur in the nanotube samples between 2 and 4 GPa (ambient pressure phonon bands in NaTNT at 274, 444, 650, and 906 cm−1) and between 4.5 and 5.5 GPa, (phonons 273 cm−1 and 436 cm−1 in NaTNT+K at an ambient pressure). Post-pressure high-resolution transmission electron microscopy analysis shows evidence of nanotube distortions and a 5% contraction in the interlaminar spacing of both NaTNT and NaTNT+K.

8 Reasons to Dump a Mutual Fund
Reasons to Dump a Mutual Fund
Many financial advisors and academics do not advise selling stocks and mutual funds when prices are dropping during bear markets. If you can just hold on from side to side thick and thin, they argue, you are likely to enjoy returns better than any other asset class over the long run.
Though, there are occasions when selling a mutual fund might be acceptable. Buy and hold is not everlastingly. Here we glance at the top eight reasons for selling a mutual fund.
1. Portfolio Rebalancing
Over time, trends in financial markets may cause asset allocations to diverge from desired settings. In other words, some mutual funds can nurture to a large proportion of the portfolio while others shrink to a smaller proportion, exposing you to a different level of risk.
To avoid these possibilities, the portfolio can be rebalanced periodically by selling units in funds that have relatively large weights and transferring the proceeds to funds that have relatively small weights. Under this rule, the time to sell equity mutual funds is when they have enjoyed high-quality gains over an extended bull market and the percentage allocated to them has drifted up too high.
2. Mutual Fund Changes or Mismanagement
Mutual funds might change in a many number of ways that can be at odds with your original reasons for buying. For an instance, a star portfolio manager could jump ship and be replaced by someone missing the same capabilities. Or there may be approach drift, which arises when a manager gradually alters his or her investing approach over time. (For more insight, check out Focus Pocus May Not Lead to Magical Returns and Must You Follow Your Fund Manager?)
Other signals to move on include an increasing trend in annual management expense ratios (MERs) or a fund that has developed large relative to the market. If the fund has developed large compared to the market, managers could have difficulty differentiating their portfolios from the market in order to earn above-market returns.
3. Investor Growth
As you gain more and more experience and you can acquire more and more wealth and hence you may outgrow mutual funds. With larger wealth comes the ability to buy enough individual stocks to achieve adequate diversification and avoid MERs. And with superior knowledge comes the confidence to do it yourself, whether it is actively picking stocks or buying and holding market indexes through exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
4. Life Cycle Changes
Although stocks historically have been the best investments to own over the long run, their instability makes them untrustworthy vehicles in the short term. While retirement, children's post-secondary educations, or some other funding requirements approach, a good idea is to shift out of stock-market funds into assets that have more certain returns, such as bonds or term deposits, whose maturities coincide with the time that the funds will be needed.
5. Mistakes
Every now and then, investors' due diligence is incomplete and they end up owning funds they otherwise would have not purchased. For an instance, the investor might discover that the fund is too impulsive for their tastes, a closet-index fund with a high MER, or invested in undesirable securities.
Portfolio errors might also have been dedicated by the investor. A frequent mistake is over-diversifying with too many funds, which can be difficult to keep tabs on and can tend to average out to market performance (less fund fees).
Another common misstep is to puzzle owning a large number of funds with diversification. A large number of funds will not smooth out fluctuations if they tend to move in the same direction. What's desirable is a collection of funds, of which some can be expected to be up when others are down.
6. Valuation
Shift out of mutual funds to rebalance your fixed portfolio allocations by using a stretchy or opportunistic approach. A common valuation benchmark is the price-earnings ratio (P/E ratio); for U.S. stocks, it has averaged 14 to 15 over time, so if it rises to 24 to 26, valuations are overextended and the risk of a downturn is prominent.
7. Something Better Comes Along
Selling on every occasion something better came along. In the mutual fund territory, some funds can come onto the market with innovations that are better at doing what your fund is doing. Or, over time, it may become obvious other portfolio managers are performing better against the same benchmarks.
8. Tax Reduction
Mutual funds held in taxable accounts might be down significantly from their purchase price. They can be sold to understand capital losses that are used to offset taxable capital gains and thus lower taxes.
If the sale was exclusively to realize a capital loss for taxation purposes, the investor will want to re-establish the position after the 30-day period necessary to avoid the superficial-loss rule. The investor might take a possibility that the price will be the same, lower or might choose to hold a proxy for the fund's price movement.
Tax-loss selling tends to take place during August to late December. That's also the era when many funds have anticipated the capital gains and income they will be distributing to investors at year end. These amounts are taxable in the hands of the investor, so a supplementary reason to sell a losing fund from the tax point of view may be to avoid a large year-end distribution that would entail paying additional taxes.

Basically that is the question - if we have a DVI file can we get on the base on it the original TeX file?
share|improve this question
no, that is not possible. – Herbert Mar 4 '12 at 17:39
It is comparable to the task of decomposing a once baked cake into its ingredients. – Thorsten Donig Nov 11 '12 at 8:42

The simple answer is no. If you have a dvi and have lost the TeX there are tools such as dvi2tty which will extract the text and some of the paragraph structure, but in general you will have to add the markup back by hand.

Somewhat alike to disassembling a compiled executable: Yes, technically it can be done - but you will lose much of the information that was contained in the original TeX source.
For example, the DVI contains the text "see also chapter 11.2".
You might be able to turn this into text again, but the information that this was originally written as see also chapter \ref{sec:FooBar} is irrevocably lost.
Since this is the case, I don't think anyone has ever made the effort to write such a DVI-to-text converter, since the usability of such text would be severly limited.

No, technically it cannot be done. DVI, PDF and postscript contain text arranged on a page according to instructions in a (La)TeX document. You can extract the text, and you can try to guess at commands that would generate a similar page, and you might even guess well. But you'd be doing it by matching the result. If there is a number in the text, for example, you can never know for sure if it was typed literally or came from a TeX counter. Imagine eating a cake and trying to reconstruct the recipe: If you're good you can identify the ingredients and guess a lot about what was done, but the recipe itself is not in the cake.
Despite what some others said, it's not at all like disassembling: Executable code contains the algorithm, and disassembly just translates it to a human-readable language. Going from dvi to LaTeX is more like trying to reconstruct a C program from its output: Reverse engineering is a better term for it.

PS files would be tremendously difficult to convert back to TeX.
With DVI files I think it would at least be partially possible. Of course all high-level macros and stuff like that would be lost. Compare the task to recovering, e.g., C++ code from a compiled binary file.

About the Norwegian Garnes name and the pronunciation:
Here in Norway we have at least two places called Garnes. They are not cities, but small places by the coastline. One close to the Bergen, and another close Ålesund. My family name origins from the latter. In Norwegian the name Garnes actually means something. "Gar" os "gard" means farm, and "nes" means headland. So it was as simple as a farm on some headland in the beginning. And since this is not so uncommon here, several places got the same name.
Now to the other spelling - "garnaas". This is actually another name, with another meaning and origin. "Garn" means "net", like in fishing net, but may also mean "yarn, thread, (knitting) wool, cotton (yarn)". "Aas" or "ås" means "hill" or "ridge", but may also mean "God" - the old norse gods that is.
There are around 4-5 places in Norway called "Garnaas" or "Garnås", and these are mainly located inland - not by the coast like the "garnes" farms. This may point in the direction of knitting wool and not fishing net, but this is only guessing. Maybe some norwegian called Garnaas can help?
The letter å (an a with a ring on top) is sometimes written as "aa", and I _think_ americans could say "aww" or "awe" to get the pronunciation correct.
426 norwegians are called Garnes 68 norwegians are called Garnås 43 norwegians are called Garnaas


Leche Merengada Recipe | Spanish-food.org
HomeDessertsLeche Merengada
Leche Merengada
Origin: Spain
Leche merengada
Leche merengada or Spanish milk shake is a typical Spanish drink made with milk, egg whites and sweetened with sugar and aromatized with cinnamon. It's served very cold and in some cases part of the drink is frozen and with a texture similar to snow, making it the perfect summer drink. This is why it's normally served in ice-cream parlors in Spanish cities and "horchaterias" (shops where horchata, a typical Valencia drink, is sold in Valencia).
We don't know much about the origins of this popular drink, however it's a favorite of our grandparents, parents and children. It's normally consumed in summer as it's very refreshing.
Many children have among some of their fondest memories, those of when their grandparents took them to the town or neighborhood ice-cream parlor for a cone or a glass of leche merengada and would tell of their week's adventure while their faces and hair got smeared with the dessert.
Not only is leche merengada a tradition in itself, it also has it's own song:
Tengo una vaca lechera
no es una vaca cualquiera.
Me da leche merengada,
¡Ay! que vaca tan salada
Tolón, tolón. Tolón, tolón.
If you want to know the meaning of this song and many others we suggest a Spanish course in Spain. Songs and food are a great way of learning the Spanish language and they are often used as topics on such language courses.
In reality, this drink is considered a milk shake with egg white, although the basic recipe doesn't change, there are some variations. For instance, some cooks add a few espresso drops, lemon juice drops or vanilla. The recipe is really somewhere in between a milkshake and a milk sorbet. Often Spanish mothers will prepare the drink in the morning so that it has enough time to cool in the fridge or freezer before their children tuck into it. After a glass of it though, you might be thinking of making some more in the evening for the next day too!
Leche merengada has been one of the most popular and in demand drink in cafes in Madrid since the end of the 18th century and has appeared in many novels as summer drinks or ice-creams consumed by character, an example of this is Jacinto y Fortuna by Pérez-Galdós. Today it is still a staple recipe for any good Spanish cook book.
Fortunately, like many other Spanish food recipes, leche merengada is easy to make and uses common and easy to find ingredients. This means that it is a great one to make everyday or for special occasions. Furthermore, the ingredients are normally inexpensive which is great if you are on a tight budget yet still want to enjoy a little taste of Spanish cuisine.
Leche Merengada | Spanish Milk Shake
Leche Merengada
Ingredients (6 portions):
 - 1 liter of milk
 - 4 egg whites
 - 300 grams of sugar
 - 1 cinnamon branch
 - 1 lemon peel
 - a pinch of powdered cinnamon
 - Boil the milk for 5 minutes with the lemon's peel, the cinnamon branch and 250 grams.
 - Turn the stove off and let it cool
 - While the milk cools whisk the egg whites until they form peaks, you can add a few lemon drops, though it's not mandatory.
 - Add the remaining 50 grams of sugar and little by little pour the cold milk on the -meringue through a strainer
 - Put in the fridge if you want it liquid or in the freezer if you want to achieve an ice-cream like texture.
Some people leave the milkshake in the freezer for much longer in tubs so that it turns into ice cream. This means that the drink can serve as a dessert as well. In fact, you will find that a number of ice cream parlours in Spain do in fact have leche merengada ice cream in sale. Why not have a scoop!
Naturally, as an ice cold drink, this is perfect for hot summer days in Spain. But when you make it into an ice cream, it makes a great accompaniment to a piece of warm cake or tart, and can therefore be consumed all year round!

Though never saw it on screen the Drone ship was supposedly an adapted warbird. But what does the normal warbird look like?
First lets look at the Drone ship:
Let's logically assume the green fins, and holographic pins are the modifications that leaves the black shape below as the main body of the warbird. What do you think? i know the drone ship was a reuse of the Flea ship from Voyager but it's the only thing we have. their must have been at least a proto-warbird class in the 22nd century.
